Independent research methodology

While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology. Learn more.

How Capterra verifies reviews

Capterra carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software and services experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI. Learn more.

How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software and service providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website. Learn more.

SBO Buzz created my website. When I want to add more content to it, I go back to my developer. I give him all of the information he needs, and we discuss placement, visuals, etc. He has a great understanding of what I want my site to look like, and how I want my visitors to be able to interact with it. He has great insight, advice, and is not only thorough, but efficient. I wouldn't go with any other! Highly recommended!! September 23, 2022
